Meet Michael and Curt: Curt is from the U.S. and Michael is English. Curt has moved to the UK so they can be together—because of DOMA, Michael couldn’t do the same in America. The couple made this beautiful video of their civil-union ceremony (which will be upgraded to a full marriage, God willing, when equal marriage clears in Britain).

You don’t even have to be in a legal union to bring a foreign born partner to the UK, as long as you can prove you are codependent on each other for at least 2 years. It’s been the law for over a decade in the UK, long before even civil partnerships were introduced in 2004. Full equal marriage is coming, inevitable.
